Steamboat club skier Vaughan grabs podium in Vermont

Steamboat Springs  Lennon Vaughan led the way for a set of Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club skiers who competed during the weekend at a Rev Tour stop at Mount Snow, Vt.

Vaughan was third in the half-pipe, pairing that strong finish with a 22nd-place showing in slope-style. Penn Lukens was eighth in both events. Jake Sear was 14th in the pipe and 39th in slope-style, and Jesse Pugh was 19th in the pipe and 57th in slope-style.

“The boys skied well in true East Coast spring conditions, from 60 degree and sunny to 40 and foggy with a lot of rain,” coach Tony Lodico said. “They didn’t let it get to them, worked hard and kept smiling.”
